I also do 3” squares
My homemade trellises all have 3 inch squares, which is [googles] about 7.5 cm. I like relatively small squares, so I can tuck more often. I'm sure 10 cm would work.

ok. thank you. 7,5 to 10cm ok so
now another question :D
Does it have to be frame with something elastic? and does this elastic material for dividing squares matters when you work inside the SCROG during flower?
If I would use something that is already in one piece but stiffer would that work?- I am thinking about galvanized 6mm steel to be exact
greetings
I use construction string line. The pvc Fran works out. I did not connect mine to the poles. That way when it is time to harvest. I cut the plants and flip the entire trellis over. Then when I trim I can just cut out all the string. Way easier than getting a stretchy net out.I use mason's twine. Cheap, and easy to cut and pull out of the canopy on harvest day. Then I re-string it for the next run. Anything rigid could be a bit of a project getting it untangled from the plants, but I've seen people do it.
Scrogging is a LOT of funHoping for some advise from scrog-ers with heavy tables. Never Scrog-ed before
You gotta find it now!Scrogging is a LOT of fun. Its addictive, and it gives you a good reason to get hands on and inspect nodes etc while you are trying to find the right spot for them. It can be a bit annoying if you are pheno hunting because inspecting the plant becomes a little more difficult, but if you want even spread its well worth it. For bud runs I use LST wire until they are in the flower tent, then I release LST and spread them out with the net instead. Unlike the crafty users here I have yet to create my own scrog-table, and I just use thick SCROG elastic from my tent supplier. I spread them out as much as I can, then I secure the large branches to the net with plant training wire (rubber coated). But the scrog tables they are posting here in this thread all look fantastic.
There is a genius user here who has done something amazing with his SCROG in his tent, they created a kind of flipping apparatus for their SCROG table. The plant is weaved through the SCROG net and is securely in place during flower. When its time to harvest all this user has to do is cut the stalks, raise the SCROG table a bit, then flip the SCROG table (holding the plants in place) upside down so now his plants are drying in the same tentit is one of the coolest things in DIY growing that I have ever seen.
My memory is horrible, but it is a very well known user here, can anybody remember who this was?
Hey friendo ;-) Guess what? I found it. It took me a little bit of digging, but I found it!You gotta find it now!that sounds awesome! Was it highlighted in its own thread or just in a grow thread?
Thanks brother haha, just takes 4 adjustable straps remove the legs attach one side flip it to the side, pick up the other end and done haha,
Got the AC crankin but still 72 in here haha, went and got a new 12g 25ft extension cord to run it it pulls up to 1600w, turns out my lights aren’t where the major power expense is
Broke up the root balls, I don’t “reuse” my soil per se, but I do put it all back outside, why waste pure peat and perlite, roots for some organic material, all my amendments that haven’t been used up, as well as my myco coloinies I spent the whole grow building, since I was top dressing my blueberries and raspberries with it I added a bag of this fox farms acid loving amendment as well, soil PH in the berry bed is running around 6.5, this has a bunch of sulfur in it wanna get that soil ph down to 4.7-5.0. (Over time I don’t like slamming it with some soil acidified amendment specifically, but work it down over time) tbis has 4.0% sulfur vs the 30% sulfur the soil acidifier has in it
AwesomeHey friendo ;-) Guess what? I found it. It took me a little bit of digging, but I found it!
It was Staff member @Mikedin and I quoted the post below.
It is genius.

Haha thanks Fam, yes I do 3” squares with masons string as well, used to use 4” but found it was easier to train with the 3”Hey friendo ;-) Guess what? I found it. It took me a little bit of digging, but I found it!

3/4” PVC pipes Home Depot 10’ pieces, all the fittings are just 90 degree elbows and 3/4 x 3/4 x 3/4 tees then a roll of masons sting and about 100 1-1/4” drywall screws, whole 8’x2’ table, legs, risers and 2nd net probably cost me about $60 and about 2 hours to make in total, 1.5 hours of that just running the strings best part, it comes apart and the net levels stay together I just separate the 2 nets, remove the risers and legs, and throw the whole thing on top of my tent till I need it againand now I'm looking at home made wonders.
I love them but there's no way I am doing SCROG table like this now. would take me two weeks. 3 with OCD
Wouldn't even know where to get those plastic pipes
Where do you get them and what kind of pipes are they?
Are they empty and if they are are you increasing weight somehow?
What's the weight of a table made like this?
Is it necessary to have legs on it or can it hang?
Because I was thinking to use this
A142 mesh for concrete slabs. 6mm. 2,2 kg/m2 so around 3 kilo for 5X5
I would cut it to 140, it's already grid 10X10 or 20X20 available, sand the edges, hook it up on four pulleys 80-120kg
and shlap it on
would that work? or not? as everywhere I am finding the same structure of tables and string - steel or nylon used
My thinking is- it stays under level of flowering so it can be rigid as I would cut plants down with it??
Much obliged for any help

yes- I was thinking about it. About strings in my way- I didn'tLike cap said the only thing is you’ll need to be more patient, with the strings you can kinda mini Pilate the stings to tuck a top under, with the mesh you’ll have to wait till it can reach it, not a major deal at all, just something to consider,
